Here's an easy way for disadvantaged yanks to learn Celsius:
40C = 104F perfect hot tub temp
30C = 86F hot day
20C = 68F nice cool day
10C = 50F chilly day
0C = 32F freezing
Commit these to memory, then it's exactly 9F for every 5C in between. (or about 2:1)
[da fak with the downvotes? Just refuse to learn?]
You give multiple references and say remember these and then do some estimations. Just subtract 30, divide by 2. 80F is approximately 25C. I'm not cooking meth here I'm arguing on the Internet.
Fine but I'm offering a simplified and exact conversion method that mostly only requires memorizing four numbers
I suppose there are different ways to learn and whatever works! Always good to have options.
their way requires only 2 numbers memorised though
So close to downvoting.. finger swiping that way... Why no other downvotes to this jerk?... Swiping... Reading... Swiping.. last sentence.. "oh, I love this motherfucker"
The calendar thing is off though. Month first gives day context.
I get it though - if you are brought up with D-M, you get used to parsing it on the fly.
YYYY-MM-DD is the only reasonable way.
End your line with two spaces.

Lol Memmy interprets that as no spaces.
